ccda7f4360 mm: memcontrol: use node page state naming scheme for memcg
The memory controllers stat function names are awkwardly long and
arbitrarily different from the zone and node stat functions.

The current interface is named:

  mem_cgroup_read_stat()
  mem_cgroup_update_stat()
  mem_cgroup_inc_stat()
  mem_cgroup_dec_stat()
  mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
  mem_cgroup_inc_page_stat()
  mem_cgroup_dec_page_stat()

This patch renames it to match the corresponding node stat functions:

  memcg_page_state()		[node_page_state()]
  mod_memcg_state()		[mod_node_state()]
  inc_memcg_state()		[inc_node_state()]
  dec_memcg_state()		[dec_node_state()]
  mod_memcg_page_state()	[mod_node_page_state()]
  inc_memcg_page_state()	[inc_node_page_state()]
  dec_memcg_page_state()	[dec_node_page_state()]

71cd31135d mm: memcontrol: re-use node VM page state enum
The current duplication is a high-maintenance mess, and it's painful to
add new items or query memcg state from the rest of the VM.

This increases the size of the stat array marginally, but we should aim
to track all these stats on a per-cgroup level anyway.

2a2e48854d mm: vmscan: fix IO/refault regression in cache workingset transition
Since commit 59dc76b0d4 ("mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file
list") we noticed bigger IO spikes during changes in cache access
patterns.

The patch in question shrunk the inactive list size to leave more room
for the current workingset in the presence of streaming IO.  However,
workingset transitions that previously happened on the inactive list are
now pushed out of memory and incur more refaults to complete.

This patch disables active list protection when refaults are being
observed.  This accelerates workingset transitions, and allows more of
the new set to establish itself from memory, without eating into the
ability to protect the established workingset during stable periods.

The workloads that were measurably affected for us were hit pretty bad
by it, with refault/majfault rates doubling and tripling during cache
transitions, and the machines sustaining half-hour periods of 100% IO
utilization, where they'd previously have sub-minute peaks at 60-90%.

Stateful services that handle user data tend to be more conservative
with kernel upgrades.  As a result we hit most page cache issues with
some delay, as was the case here.

The severity seemed to warrant a stable tag.

17cc4dfeda slab: use memcg_kmem_cache_wq for slab destruction operations
If there's contention on slab_mutex, queueing the per-cache destruction
work item on the system_wq can unnecessarily create and tie up a lot of
kworkers.

Rename memcg_kmem_cache_create_wq to memcg_kmem_cache_wq and make it
global and use that workqueue for the destruction work items too.  While
at it, convert the workqueue from an unbound workqueue to a per-cpu one
with concurrency limited to 1.  It's generally preferable to use per-cpu
workqueues and concurrency limit of 1 is safe enough.

This is suggested by Joonsoo Kim.

bc2791f857 slab: link memcg kmem_caches on their associated memory cgroup
With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and
destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can
accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not
under memory pressure.  When memory reclaim starts under such
conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of
many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large
systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management
code.  This is one of the patches to address the issue.

While a memcg kmem_cache is listed on its root cache's ->children list,
there is no direct way to iterate all kmem_caches which are assocaited
with a memory cgroup.  The only way to iterate them is walking all
caches while filtering out caches which don't match, which would be most
of them.

This makes memcg destruction operations O(N^2) where N is the total
number of slab caches which can be huge.  This combined with the
synchronous RCU operations can tie up a CPU and affect the whole machine
for many hours when memory reclaim triggers offlining and destruction of
the stale memcgs.

This patch adds mem_cgroup->kmem_caches list which goes through
memcg_cache_params->kmem_caches_node of all kmem_caches which are
associated with the memcg.  All memcg specific iterations, including
stat file access, are updated to use the new list instead.

the oom killer is clearly pre-mature because there there is still a lot
of page cache in the zone Normal which should satisfy this lowmem
request.  Further debugging has shown that the reclaim cannot make any
forward progress because the page cache is hidden in the active list
which doesn't get rotated because inactive_list_is_low is not memcg
aware.

The code simply subtracts per-zone highmem counters from the respective
memcg's lru sizes which doesn't make any sense.  We can simply end up
always seeing the resulting active and inactive counts 0 and return
false.  This issue is not limited to 32b kernels but in practice the
effect on systems without CONFIG_HIGHMEM would be much harder to notice
because we do not invoke the OOM killer for allocations requests
targeting < ZONE_NORMAL.

Fix the issue by tracking per zone lru page counts in mem_cgroup_per_node
and subtract per-memcg highmem counts when memcg is enabled.  Introduce
helper lruvec_zone_lru_size which redirects to either zone counters or
mem_cgroup_get_zone_lru_size when appropriate.

We are losing empty LRU but non-zero lru size detection introduced by
ca707239e8 ("mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size") because
of the inherent zone vs. node discrepancy.

7c5f64f844 mm: oom: deduplicate victim selection code for memcg and global oom
When selecting an oom victim, we use the same heuristic for both memory
cgroup and global oom.  The only difference is the scope of tasks to
select the victim from.  So we could just export an iterator over all
memcg tasks and keep all oom related logic in oom_kill.c, but instead we
duplicate pieces of it in memcontrol.c reusing some initially private
functions of oom_kill.c in order to not duplicate all of it.  That looks
ugly and error prone, because any modification of select_bad_process
should also be propagated to mem_cgroup_out_of_memory.

Let's rework this as follows: keep all oom heuristic related code private
to oom_kill.c and make oom_kill.c use exported memcg functions when it's
really necessary (like in case of iterating over memcg tasks).

LRU list contents and counts are updated separately.  Counts are updated
before pages are added to the LRU and updated after pages are removed.
The warning above is from a check in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size that
ensures that list sizes of zero are empty.

The problem is that node-lru needs to account for highmem pages if
CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set.  One impact of the implementation is that the
sizes are updated in multiple passes when pages from multiple zones were
isolated.  This happens whether HIGHMEM is set or not.  When multiple
zones are isolated, it's possible for a debugging check in memcg to be
tripped.

This patch forces all the zone counts to be updated before the memcg
function is called.

ef8f232799 mm, memcg: move memcg limit enforcement from zones to nodes
Memcg needs adjustment after moving LRUs to the node.  Limits are
tracked per memcg but the soft-limit excess is tracked per zone.  As
global page reclaim is based on the node, it is easy to imagine a
situation where a zone soft limit is exceeded even though the memcg
limit is fine.

This patch moves the soft limit tree the node.  Technically, all the
variable names should also change but people are already familiar by the
meaning of "mz" even if "mn" would be a more appropriate name now.

as counters, tracing, congestion tracking and writeback tracking.

Unfortunately, due to reclaim and compaction retry logic, it is

logic.  Most reclaim logic is based on the node counters but the retry
logic uses the zone counters which do not distinguish inactive and
active sizes.  It would be possible to leave the LRU counters on a
per-zone basis but it's a heavier calculation across multiple cache
lines that is much more frequent than the retry checks.

Other than the LRU counters, this is mostly a mechanical patch but note
that it introduces a number of anomalies.  For example, the scans are
per-zone but using per-node counters.  We also mark a node as congested
when a zone is congested.  This causes weird problems that are fixed
later but is easier to review.

In the event that there is excessive overhead on 32-bit systems due to
the nodes being on LRU then there are two potential solutions

1. Long-term isolation of highmem pages when reclaim is lowmem

   When pages are skipped, they are immediately added back onto the LRU
   list. If lowmem reclaim persisted for long periods of time, the same
   highmem pages get continually scanned. The idea would be that lowmem
   keeps those pages on a separate list until a reclaim for highmem pages
   arrives that splices the highmem pages back onto the LRU. It potentially
   could be implemented similar to the UNEVICTABLE list.

   That would reduce the skip rate with the potential corner case is that
   highmem pages have to be scanned and reclaimed to free lowmem slab pages.

2. Linear scan lowmem pages if the initial LRU shrink fails

   This will break LRU ordering but may be preferable and faster during
   memory pressure than skipping LRU pages.

55779ec759 mm: fix vm-scalability regression in cgroup-aware workingset code
Commit 23047a96d7 ("mm: workingset: per-cgroup cache thrash
detection") added a page->mem_cgroup lookup to the cache eviction,
refault, and activation paths, as well as locking to the activation
path, and the vm-scalability tests showed a regression of -23%.

While the test in question is an artificial worst-case scenario that
doesn't occur in real workloads - reading two sparse files in parallel
at full CPU speed just to hammer the LRU paths - there is still some
optimizations that can be done in those paths.

Inline the lookup functions to eliminate calls.  Also, page->mem_cgroup
doesn't need to be stabilized when counting an activation; we merely
need to hold the RCU lock to prevent the memcg from being freed.

This cuts down on overhead quite a bit:

73f576c04b mm: memcontrol: fix cgroup creation failure after many small jobs
The memory controller has quite a bit of state that usually outlives the
cgroup and pins its CSS until said state disappears.  At the same time
it imposes a 16-bit limit on the CSS ID space to economically store IDs
in the wild.  Consequently, when we use cgroups to contain frequent but
small and short-lived jobs that leave behind some page cache, we quickly
run into the 64k limitations of outstanding CSSs.  Creating a new cgroup
fails with -ENOSPC while there are only a few, or even no user-visible
cgroups in existence.

Although pinning CSSs past cgroup removal is common, there are only two
instances that actually need an ID after a cgroup is deleted: cache
shadow entries and swapout records.

Cache shadow entries reference the ID weakly and can deal with the CSS
having disappeared when it's looked up later.  They pose no hurdle.

Swap-out records do need to pin the css to hierarchically attribute
swapins after the cgroup has been deleted; though the only pages that
remain swapped out after offlining are tmpfs/shmem pages.  And those
references are under the user's control, so they are manageable.

This patch introduces a private 16-bit memcg ID and switches swap and
cache shadow entries over to using that.  This ID can then be recycled
after offlining when the CSS remains pinned only by objects that don't
specifically need it.

This script demonstrates the problem by faulting one cache page in a new
cgroup and deleting it again:

  set -e
  mkdir -p pages
  for x in `seq 128000`; do
    [ $((x % 1000)) -eq 0 ] && echo $x
    mkdir /cgroup/foo
    echo $$ >/cgroup/foo/cgroup.procs
    echo trex >pages/$x
    echo $$ >/cgroup/cgroup.procs
    rmdir /cgroup/foo
  done

When run on an unpatched kernel, we eventually run out of possible IDs
even though there are no visible cgroups:

  [root@ham ~]# ./cssidstress.sh
  [...]
  65000
  mkdir: cannot create directory '/cgroup/foo': No space left on device

After this patch, the IDs get released upon cgroup destruction and the
cache and css objects get released once memory reclaim kicks in.

59dc76b0d4 mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file list
The inactive file list should still be large enough to contain readahead
windows and freshly written file data, but it no longer is the only
source for detecting multiple accesses to file pages.  The workingset
refault measurement code causes recently evicted file pages that get
accessed again after a shorter interval to be promoted directly to the
active list.

With that mechanism in place, we can afford to (on a larger system)
dedicate more memory to the active file list, so we can actually cache
more of the frequently used file pages in memory, and not have them
pushed out by streaming writes, once-used streaming file reads, etc.

This can help things like database workloads, where only half the page
cache can currently be used to cache the database working set.  This
patch automatically increases that fraction on larger systems, using the
same ratio that has already been used for anonymous memory.

9d5e6a9f22 mm: update_lru_size do the __mod_zone_page_state
Konstantin Khlebnikov pointed out (nearly four years ago, when lumpy
reclaim was removed) that lru_size can be updated by -nr_taken once per
call to isolate_lru_pages(), instead of page by page.

Update it inside isolate_lru_pages(), or at its two callsites? I chose
to update it at the callsites, rearranging and grouping the updates by
nr_taken and nr_scanned together in both.

With one exception, mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(,lru,) is then used where
__mod_zone_page_state(,NR_LRU_BASE+lru,) is used; and we shall be adding
some more calls in a future commit.  Make the code a little smaller and
simpler by incorporating stat update in lru_size update.

The exception was move_active_pages_to_lru(), which aggregated the
pgmoved stat update separately from the individual lru_size updates; but
I still think this a simplification worth making.

However, the __mod_zone_page_state is not peculiar to mem_cgroups: so
better use the name update_lru_size, calls mem_cgroup_update_lru_size
when CONFIG_MEMCG.

Workingset code was recently made memcg aware, but shadow node shrinker
is still global.  As a result, one small cgroup can consume all memory
available for shadow nodes, possibly hurting other cgroups by reclaiming
their shadow nodes, even though reclaim distances stored in its shadow
nodes have no effect.  To avoid this, we need to make shadow node
shrinker memcg aware.

b6ecd2dea4 mm: memcontrol: zap memcg_kmem_online helper
As kmem accounting is now either enabled for all cgroups or disabled
system-wide, there's no point in having memcg_kmem_online() helper -
instead one can use memcg_kmem_enabled() and mem_cgroup_online(), as
shrink_slab() now does.

There are only two places left where this helper is used -
__memcg_kmem_charge() and memcg_create_kmem_cache().  The former can
only be called if memcg_kmem_enabled() returned true.  Since the cgroup
it operates on is online, mem_cgroup_is_root() check will be enough.

memcg_create_kmem_cache() can't use mem_cgroup_online() helper instead
of memcg_kmem_online(), because it relies on the fact that in
memcg_offline_kmem() memcg->kmem_state is changed before
memcg_deactivate_kmem_caches() is called, but there we can just
open-code the check.

6a93ca8fde mm: migrate: do not touch page->mem_cgroup of live pages
Changing a page's memcg association complicates dealing with the page,
so we want to limit this as much as possible.  Page migration e.g.  does
not have to do that.  Just like page cache replacement, it can forcibly
charge a replacement page, and then uncharge the old page when it gets
freed.  Temporarily overcharging the cgroup by a single page is not an
issue in practice, and charging is so cheap nowadays that this is much
preferrable to the headache of messing with live pages.

The only place that still changes the page->mem_cgroup binding of live
pages is when pages move along with a task to another cgroup.  But that
path isolates the page from the LRU, takes the page lock, and the move
lock (lock_page_memcg()).  That means page->mem_cgroup is always stable
in callers that have the page isolated from the LRU or locked.  Lighter
unlocked paths, like writeback accounting, can use lock_page_memcg().

Cache thrash detection (see a528910e12 "mm: thrash detection-based
file cache sizing" for details) currently only works on the system
level, not inside cgroups.  Worse, as the refaults are compared to the
global number of active cache, cgroups might wrongfully get all their
refaults activated when their pages are hotter than those of others.

Move the refault machinery from the zone to the lruvec, and then tag
eviction entries with the memcg ID.  This makes the thrash detection
work correctly inside cgroups.

81f8c3a461 mm: memcontrol: generalize locking for the page->mem_cgroup binding
These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the
memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim
work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global
reclaim already is.

This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch
series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches.

This patch (of 5):

So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to
stabilize page->mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence
the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat().  But per-cgroup thrash detection
will add another site that needs to ensure page->mem_cgroup lifetime.

Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and
unlock_page_memcg().  Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only,
we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to
identify locking sites along with it.

37e8435119 mm: memcontrol: charge swap to cgroup2
This patchset introduces swap accounting to cgroup2.

This patch (of 7):

In the legacy hierarchy we charge memsw, which is dubious, because:

 - memsw.limit must be >= memory.limit, so it is impossible to limit
   swap usage less than memory usage. Taking into account the fact that
   the primary limiting mechanism in the unified hierarchy is
   memory.high while memory.limit is either left unset or set to a very
   large value, moving memsw.limit knob to the unified hierarchy would
   effectively make it impossible to limit swap usage according to the
   user preference.

 - memsw.usage != memory.usage + swap.usage, because a page occupying
   both swap entry and a swap cache page is charged only once to memsw
   counter. As a result, it is possible to effectively eat up to
   memory.limit of memory pages *and* memsw.limit of swap entries, which
   looks unexpected.

That said, we should provide a different swap limiting mechanism for
cgroup2.

This patch adds mem_cgroup->swap counter, which charges the actual number
of swap entries used by a cgroup.  It is only charged in the unified
hierarchy, while the legacy hierarchy memsw logic is left intact.

The swap usage can be monitored using new memory.swap.current file and
limited using memory.swap.max.

Note, to charge swap resource properly in the unified hierarchy, we have
to make swap_entry_free uncharge swap only when ->usage reaches zero, not
just ->count, i.e.  when all references to a swap entry, including the one
taken by swap cache, are gone.  This is necessary, because otherwise
swap-in could result in uncharging swap even if the page is still in swap
cache and hence still occupies a swap entry.  At the same time, this
shouldn't break memsw counter logic, where a page is never charged twice
for using both memory and swap, because in case of legacy hierarchy we
uncharge swap on commit (see mem_cgroup_commit_charge).

0b8f73e104 mm: memcontrol: clean up alloc, online, offline, free functions
The creation and teardown of struct mem_cgroup is fairly messy and
that has attracted mistakes and subtle bugs before.

The main cause for this is that there is no clear model about what
needs to happen when, and that attracts more chaos. So create one:

1. mem_cgroup_alloc() should allocate struct mem_cgroup and its
   auxiliary members and initialize work items, locks etc. so that the
   object it returns is fully initialized and in a neutral state.

2. mem_cgroup_css_alloc() will use mem_cgroup_alloc() to obtain a new
   memcg object and configure it and the system according to the role
   of the new memory-controlled cgroup in the hierarchy.

3. mem_cgroup_css_online() is no longer needed to synchronize with
   iterators, but it verifies css->id which isn't available earlier.

4. mem_cgroup_css_offline() implements stuff that needs to happen upon
   the user-visible destruction of a cgroup, which includes stopping
   all user interfacing as well as releasing certain structures when
   continued memory consumption would be unexpected at that point.

5. mem_cgroup_css_free() prepares the system and the memcg object for
   the object's disappearance, neutralizes its state, and then gives
   it back to mem_cgroup_free().

6. mem_cgroup_free() releases struct mem_cgroup and auxiliary memory.

0db1529817 mm: memcontrol: flatten struct cg_proto
There are no more external users of struct cg_proto, flatten the
structure into struct mem_cgroup.

Since using those struct members doesn't stand out as much anymore,
add cgroup2 static branches to make it clearer which code is legacy.

567e9ab2e6 mm: memcontrol: give the kmem states more descriptive names
On any given memcg, the kmem accounting feature has three separate
states: not initialized, structures allocated, and actively accounting
slab memory.  These are represented through a combination of the
kmem_acct_activated and kmem_acct_active flags, which is confusing.

Convert to a kmem_state enum with the states NONE, ALLOCATED, and
ONLINE.  Then rename the functions to modify the state accordingly.
This follows the nomenclature of css object states more closely.

f627c2f537 memcg: adjust to support new THP refcounting
As with rmap, with new refcounting we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() to
check if we need to charge size of huge page form the cgroup.  We need
to get information from caller to know whether it was mapped with PMD or
PTE.

We do uncharge when last reference on the page gone.  At that point if
we see PageTransHuge() it means we need to unchange whole huge page.

The tricky part is partial unmap -- when we try to unmap part of huge
page.  We don't do a special handing of this situation, meaning we don't
uncharge the part of huge page unless last user is gone or
split_huge_page() is triggered.  In case of cgroup memory pressure
happens the partial unmapped page will be split through shrinker.  This
should be good enough.

8e8ae64524 mm: memcontrol: hook up vmpressure to socket pressure
Let the networking stack know when a memcg is under reclaim pressure so
that it can clamp its transmit windows accordingly.

Whenever the reclaim efficiency of a cgroup's LRU lists drops low enough
for a MEDIUM or HIGH vmpressure event to occur, assert a pressure state
in the socket and tcp memory code that tells it to curb consumption
growth from sockets associated with said control group.

Traditionally, vmpressure reports for the entire subtree of a memcg
under pressure, which drops useful information on the individual groups
reclaimed.  However, it's too late to change the userinterface, so add a
second reporting mode that reports on the level of reclaim instead of at
the level of pressure, and use that report for sockets.

vmpressure events are naturally edge triggered, so for hysteresis assert
socket pressure for a second to allow for subsequent vmpressure events
to occur before letting the socket code return to normal.

This will likely need finetuning for a wider variety of workloads, but
for now stick to the vmpressure presets and keep hysteresis simple.

f7e1cb6ec5 mm: memcontrol: account socket memory in unified hierarchy memory controller
Socket memory can be a significant share of overall memory consumed by
common workloads.  In order to provide reasonable resource isolation in
the unified hierarchy, this type of memory needs to be included in the
tracking/accounting of a cgroup under active memory resource control.

Overhead is only incurred when a non-root control group is created AND
the memory controller is instructed to track and account the memory
footprint of that group.  cgroup.memory=nosocket can be specified on the
boot commandline to override any runtime configuration and forcibly
exclude socket memory from active memory resource control.

e805605c72 net: tcp_memcontrol: sanitize tcp memory accounting callbacks
There won't be a tcp control soft limit, so integrating the memcg code
into the global skmem limiting scheme complicates things unnecessarily.
Replace this with simple and clear charge and uncharge calls--hidden
behind a jump label--to account skb memory.

Note that this is not purely aesthetic: as a result of shoehorning the
per-memcg code into the same memory accounting functions that handle the
global level, the old code would compare the per-memcg consumption
against the smaller of the per-memcg limit and the global limit.  This
allowed the total consumption of multiple sockets to exceed the global
limit, as long as the individual sockets stayed within bounds.  After
this change, the code will always compare the per-memcg consumption to
the per-memcg limit, and the global consumption to the global limit, and
thus close this loophole.

Without a soft limit, the per-memcg memory pressure state in sockets is
generally questionable.  However, we did it until now, so we continue to
enter it when the hard limit is hit, and packets are dropped, to let
other sockets in the cgroup know that they shouldn't grow their transmit
windows, either.  However, keep it simple in the new callback model and
leave memory pressure lazily when the next packet is accepted (as
opposed to doing it synchroneously when packets are processed).  When
packets are dropped, network performance will already be in the toilet,
so that should be a reasonable trade-off.

As described above, consumption is now checked on the per-memcg level
and the global level separately.  Likewise, memory pressure states are
maintained on both the per-memcg level and the global level, and a
socket is considered under pressure when either level asserts as much.
